Watershed
It’s been raining. The rain got me outside for a while. The water started to come in, next to the chimney first. I called my landlord who said that it has happened before, and it just need some silicone insulation and that he’s coming tomorrow. But then water started drop out of the roof about meter away from the chimney. Not funny at all. I called him again and he though that it’s still probably the chimney but that the water travels a bit inside the roof. He said that the roof breathes so it will dry out, but of course it would be nice that there wouldn’t be so much water to dry out. So I went to the roof with a headlamp, plasticbags, tape and a piece of thin rope. I tried to tie plasticbags around this seam which is probably leaking. I also tried to see if there’s any marks on the roof but I didn’t really see any. Well, probably he’s right about the chimney seam.
My father’s place just had water damage. I still don’t know has the plumbing leaked or has the upstairs neighbour had a really bad day, but there was a lot of water. Lucky my 16-tracker didn’t catch any. Houses should be for water staying out and us inside dry. Not funny at all.
Didn’t got money from TKT for travelling to Russia to perform so now I just filled an application for sleipnir. If I don’t get the grant I cannot go.
Got mail from KELA that they’ll give me 170€ after all, oh how nice. That’s almost half of my rent so I guess it’s noworries then.
Updated to WP 2.0.4 which went quite easily except I missed a couple of things first.
Been listening a lot of music today. Just now Jim O’Rourke’s insignificance which is really quite quite good.
Also good deal of Ulver.
I read Thud by Pratchett and it was very nice. They’re quite the same but somehow right now I like these A-M story lines, like night watch, going postal, the truth and so on. It seems that The Witches has been out of storyboard for a while, except with Tiffany Aching, but it’s not really the same is it. But I just said I like these A-M storylines so it’s ok with me. I’m sure Granny Weatherwax shall return on some point.
Since everything is so depressing (is it really?) I started to read “the last continent”, good fun.
Good night.
